marcfair Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 (edited) Just been reading the 'year in ' thread and was just wondering if anyone has bought an aftermarket warranty and successfully claimed for work to their Evora? I noticed there are a few warranties available which even cover wear and tear ? Ive not looked into costs Edited December 19, 2019 by marcfair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jep Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 Pay a bit more, buy from a main dealer and get a one year warranty that covers everything. Not sure if all Lotus dealers offer this but one in Surrey does. Justin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold FFM Cdm2018 Posted December 20, 2019 Gold FFM Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 I had asked this question a year ago when my dealer warranty expired after some research and comments from forum members I concluded better to save the money in a fund pot and pay out of that rather than taking out a third party or dealer extended warranty. warranties Can be difficult to claim as the main things you want covering are not so to me it’s seems a pointless thing to take out. i have AA garage cover as part of my breakdown cover and this will cover parts and labour up to £500 so for some things it softens the blow a wee bit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EGTE Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Never known a warranty to cover wear and tear. Would still much, much prefer a manual, too. Edited December 20, 2019 by EGTE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted December 20, 2019 Report Share Posted December 20, 2019 The problem is that 3rd party warranties have so many exclusions, T&C's and limitations that they're generally not worth it. The main costs with these cars are wear-and-tear based anyway so it wouldn't be covered. Put £50-100 a month in a slush fund instead.
